Right.

And the dog looks like he's just not happy to be there.

And I've been there.

I know not every dog is gonna look happy to be there when some sort of, uh, you know, stress is put on them.

But it is our job as trainers to do right by the dog and try to get that side out, out of them.

So to me, like my, like my trainers here, I, I talk to them, I go, "Hey, where, where does the dog show some enthusiasm, like, where he actually enjoys being a dog?" "Well, here." "Well, we're gonna use some of that-"In order to work on this where we do add a correction, but then we free them up a little bit over here on this side where they feel good, you know? And, and that's, I think the, the hardest part about dog training is you gotta, you gotta figure out all these things as you're going.

Within a session, I could change three different things, you know, and it'll, it'll make a world of difference.

Talk to me when it goes right versus when it goes wrong for a Corso.

we're talking about the drop it command if i do something like a value transfer for value transfer or i just hold it and wait till the dog releases that's something that's significantly easier to do when the dog's not in the middle of a fight with a decoy especially when we're considering something like french ring at the highest level french ring three anyone who doesn't know what that is look up french ring three yeah it's crazy exactly it's insane it's nuts How do you get a dog to the point where even in the middle of the fight, you can say out and they release instantly?

So I think for me, clear communication is, you know, most important and out.

And I pay a lot of attention to my outs outside of the outside of the game.

you know, the game with the decoy outside of protection.

If my dog, my dog, if I have a nice clear out outside of there, um, so I do everything with me first.

And, and sometimes you'll see handlers, they'll tell their dog to out on a ball.

They struggle, you know, they can't, you know, so to me, that's where it starts.

that sort
